You only have to get caught violating Immigration rules once to make you regret taking chances. One of my former colleagues is a "former" colleague because he went to Indonesia without a business visa to do a quick set of meetings over a 1 week period. Somehow Indonesia found out and deported him. And blacklisted him. After he couldn't go back (and found out he had problems in all ASEAN countries because of that) he couldn't go the job for HQ that he was hired to do. They let him go.
